Hey y'all, here's today's scripture

A man’s mind plans his way [as he journeys through life], But the Lord directs his steps and establishes them.
PROVERBS 16:9 AMP
https://bible.com/bible/1588/pro.16.9.AMP

The following are some other scriptures I've collected from a few reading plans that I found to be encouraging in this difficult day for me...

The things which you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, practice these things [in daily life], and the God [who is the source] of peace and well-being will be with you.
PHILIPPIANS 4:9 AMP
https://bible.com/bible/1588/php.4.9.AMP

And the peace of God [that peace which reassures the heart, that peace] which transcends all understanding, [that peace which] stands guard over your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus [is yours].
PHILIPPIANS 4:7 AMP
https://bible.com/bible/1588/php.4.7.AMP

Understand this, my beloved brothers and sisters. Let everyone be quick to hear [be a careful, thoughtful listener], slow to speak [a speaker of carefully chosen words and], slow to anger [patient, reflective, forgiving];
JAMES 1:19 AMP
https://bible.com/bible/1588/jas.1.19.AMP

For whatever was written in earlier times was written for our instruction, so that through endurance and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope and overflow with confidence in His promises.
ROMANS 15:4 AMP
https://bible.com/bible/1588/rom.15.4.AMP

I pray these scriptures are encouraging for you as they are for me. Much love and may peace be with you all...

Happy Sunday y'all! Here's today's scripture: Jesus Christ is [eternally changeless, always] the same yesterday and today and forever. HEBREWS 13:8 AMP https://bible.com/bible/1588/heb.13.8.AMP NIV translation Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. Hebrews 13:8 NIV https://bible.com/bible/111/heb.13.8.NIV MSG translation Appreciate your pastoral leaders who gave you the Word of God. Take a good look at the way they live, and let their faithfulness instruct you, as well as their truthfulness. There should be a consistency that runs through us all. For Jesus doesn’t change—yesterday, today, tomorrow, he’s always totally himself. Hebrews 13:7‭-‬8 MSG https://bible.com/bible/97/heb.13.7-8.MSG Jesus, the Anointed One, is always the same—yesterday, today, and forever. Hebrews 13:8 TPT https://bible.com/bible/1849/heb.13.8.TPT It's so great to me, very comforting, to know that God really is always the same! You don't have to worry abo...

Ecclesiastes November 2020

  Hey y’all! I hope everyone is doing well and feeling great! This post covers the Ecclesiastes of the month which is chapter 11.   I will be sharing three different translations of this chapter; the Ampllified, Contemporary English Version, and New Living Translation.     ECCLESIASTES 11 AMPLIFIED VERSION (AMP) Cast Your Bread on the Waters 1 Cast your bread on the surface of the waters, [be diligently active, make thoughtful decisions], for you will  I.e. be richly rewarded. find it after many days.  2 Give a portion to seven, or even [divide it] to eight, for you do not know what misfortune may occur on the earth.  3 If the clouds are full [of rain], they empty themselves on the earth; and if a tree falls toward the south or toward the north, in the place where the tree falls, there it lies.  4 He who watches the wind [waiting for all conditions to be perfect] will not sow [seed], and he who looks at the clouds will not reap [a harves...

Hey y'all! I pray everyone is doing great! The scripture I'm using for this week's Teaching Tuesday Thread is a perfect reminder for our behavior not just for this time of year, but all year round. But love [that is, unselfishly seek the best or higher good for] your enemies, and do good, and lend, expecting nothing in return; for your reward will be great (rich, abundant), and you will be sons of the Most High; because He Himself is kind and gracious and good to the ungrateful and the wicked. Luke 6:35 AMP https://bible.com/bible/1588/luk.6.35.AMP So when we, followers of Christ Jesus, talk about love it also includes those we'd rather not be nice to. I'm talking about people that aren't nice to us, right down mean people, even the wicked. Now let's make clear that I'm not saying let them treat you anyway they want, no! I am saying though that we do need to show kindness and giving without expecting anything in return. I'll be the first to adm...
